Race against the clock on Provence-Alpes-Côte-d’Azur’s greenways

Are you the kind of cyclist who goes it alone? Do you pedal as part of a tribe to “shine” in the final sprint? Do you like to share your passion with friends and family? It doesn’t matter! With no fewer than 23 greenways, the PACA region is a prime spot for cyclists of all stripes. On the agenda for your sporting vacation: cycling tours under azure blue skies, of course, but also breathtaking landscapes, authentic little villages, fresh and gourmet breaks… All to the sound of cicadas!

A must during your sporting holiday in the PACA region: the “voie verte du Littoral Varois” between Toulon and Pramousquier. Built on the old Provençal railway line, this 53 km route winds its way through forests, sea, military heritage, sandy beaches and small Var towns, and is sure to delight! Other ideas for beautiful escapes from La Londe-les-Maures: Bormes-les-Mimosas – Col de Babaou, Salins des Pesquiers – Surfspot, Route des Crêtes – Valcros, Chemin des Borrels – View of the islands…

Still not satisfied? All the way to your “La-Londe-les-Maures ” theme village with its “Sports activities” theme, where you can play for longer: XXL swimming pool, fitness activities, gym, volleyball court, pétanque, ping pong…

Ride the wave in French California like a pro!

If you love surfing, the Côte-Basque is the place to be! According to the Times, this part of the Atlantic coast between Anglet and Bilbao even deserves the nickname ‘French California’. In short, if you like to ride, and if cut backs, kick outs and off the lip have no secrets for you, you’re going to love your stay in the Basque Country!

Themed “Sports & Sensations”, your summer rental in Anglet promises you an ocean of emotions on the 11 legendary spots of this cool and trendy surf town**: Plage des Cavaliers, des Dunes, de la Madrague et de la Petite Madrague, de l’Océan, de la petite Chambre d’Amour, des Corsaires, des Sables d’Or… If there’s no set pattern for your sporting vacation, we also recommend cycling: 18 km of Angloyes cycle paths, a stage of the Vélodyssée, cycle routes in the heart of the Basque country, seaside circuits to the Côte Argentée, greenways in the Chiberta forest… And, after the effort, there’s nothing better than a dip in our XXL swimming pool or a thalassotherapy session with one of our partners: Athlantal or Institut Thalmar!

Make a flawless journey with mountain hiking!

The last of our sporting vacation ideas: mountain walking. Hiking is a real sport, if you do it at the right pace, over a certain distance and with a certain difference in altitude. In fact, doesn’t the WHO recommend walking at least 10,000 steps a day to stay in shape?

While this gentle sport for the body is excellent for the heart and endurance, it also burns a lot of calories: around 350/h! Not to mention the mental benefits of hiking! It’s impossible to brood when you’re hiking in the mountains. There’s nothing but fresh air and breathtaking panoramas.

Convinced by the benefits of a sporting holiday in the mountains, with the option of hiking and other outdoor activities? Our summer rentals welcome you with open arms in Arêches-Beaufort (Savoie), Fournols-d’Auvergne, La Clusaz (Haute-Savoie), La Mongie (Haute-Pyrénées), Métabief (Haut-Doubs)…
